So far no one's replied. Fair enough, but does this mean it's not doable? It's not a major problem to download the pets for Firefox 2.0.0.16 or 3.01.

Well it could work, Firefox is usually located in usr/lib/firefox
that folder would have to be copied
Also it might be using the flash from usr/lib/mozilla so that would have to be copied
and also root/.mozilla that contains your themes, sometimes flash, plugins settings, cookies etc so that would have to be copied
thats just off the top of my head, I don't have FF installed at this time on my testing pc.
You would have to delete the folders in first on puppy or move them to another out-of-the way location as for a backup, do this at your own risk of you losing you settings for firefox/seamonkey, Might want to try it first running live with puppy pfix=ram as your boot option

Thanks once again, but in the event I went back to Firefox 2.0.0.3 which updated to 2.0.0.16 of its own accord, which took just over an hour on dialup.

I now have two menu entries for Firefox, neither is labeled as to version and neither loads.

The desktop icon also fails to load Firefox.

I see activity that suggests Firefox is trying to load but it fails.

I am using Dillo at the moment.

Can I back out of the failed install or is there some other SIMPLE way to fix what it broke, please?

HELP, PLEASE?

Just use the puppy package manager and uninstall both version and reinstall the one that worked.
If that doesn't work could you give me the link of the other Firefox you installed.
And maybe dillo is really bugging you, for the time being maybe install Opera, since it won't use any of the Firefox directories and should run just fine.

I toggled acpi=off for the test based on the more-stable results of that setting on my CF-28.

A couple of the desktop icons were slightly out of alignment but nothing significant.

Opened and closed Seamonkey Web Browser and though the resource indicator showed a large spike there was no crash or freezing. (I am unable to test the Internet connection as I have no wired or wireless nic yet.)

I opened gxine and the resource usage window spiked again, then settle down to half the height of the tiny graphical display in the taskbar window.

I closed gxine and opened xsoldier which caused a new resource spike and xsoldier could not be made full screen nor scrolled to view the bottom portion of the window but closed fine with no instability.

Opened mtPaint with a lesser resource spike and it appears to be stable.

Hi,
I think the 3.0.2 pet above is really nice, haven't saved a copy and now it's missing. I'm missing it too, where has it gone...? _________________Puppy 4.10 Dingo - no sugar added - but maybe a little piece of fat-free...?
